Hi friends and happy Friday! You’ll have to let me know how you like this style of chatty meal prep as it’s a little different than what I normally do 😃 Thank you so much for watching!!!
My husband is intermittent fasting to, he has lost 4 stone since August 1st. Such a fabulous way to loose weight if you can stick to it, it’s a way of life to him now. I don’t think he will ever stop using that method as he literally eats what he wants in those 8 hours fast food included and the weight is still falling off 😊
Hi Jen, don't care if you repeat any recipe a million times, I would still watch 🥰 I love all of your videos and you've really motivated me to step up my meal prep game ( and I have) :)
I don’t think I’m the typical demographic for your meal prep videos, but these are so inspiring for single, working professionals. It’s helped me add more variety to the foods I reheat for myself all week haha. Love the chatty video.
I always keep peeled hard boiled eggs in the fridge...my dog takes a pill every morning and I just shove it in the egg. 🐶 I also love the chicken sausage as a sheet pan dinner with sweet potatoes, onions, peppers, etc. They look great for breakfast too!
I've never had cleaner produce or more pre-prepped things in my fridge than after I started watching your videos!!! So motivating and satisfying. I feel like we're hanging out in the kitchen together when I watch you- so real
I love watching your channel! I have stolen a few tips from you and it has seriously changed my life (especially the salad spinner veg washing)! You're so relatable to my life. Thanks for existing!! ❤
I've been looking for some recipes on your site for lunch prep for work. I have 30 minutes and don't want to take time to microwave and don't want sandwiches or salad every day. This Moroccan dish is something that would be a good choice.
I’m always so pleased to see another video from you - thank you! I have a vague recollection of you mentioning “Educated” by Tara Westover but in case I’ve misremembered, I wanted to recommend it. It’s a great book and I think you might relate to it.
I know exactly what you mean!! We went to a strict Apostolic church. As an adult, I can definitely look back and relate to your views on that. I love your prep and recipe videos so much! Have an awesome Friday!
Thank for the information about washing veggies! I plan ordering my OXO salad spinner this weekend. I always thought I didn't need it just for one task, but now that you gave a great example of wasting and spinning all sorts of produce I see the justification and need in having one. I love watching your videos! You are so real and relatable. Thumbs up on the chatty meal prep! 👍🏻😃
Jen, with your scallions ..cut to root end leaving just about half an inch of green, place just root end in water, change every couple of days, but you can get more for your $$ and I know you use them often 😀
I actually just got the deviled egg holder from Amazon on Monday! Love it for functions! I also use vinegar instead of pickle relish, woo-woo sauce and onion powder. We love ‘em tart!
Celery leaves are amazing in salad. Also, if you don't want to store it in water, or just don't have the time, you can wrap it tightly (take it out of the plastic bag it comes in, but don't cut it up) in aluminum foil and it stays good for a very long time, at least month, maybe more. When you need some, just tear off a stalk and rewrap the rest. I don't peel boiled eggs before putting them in the fridge because it is just me, but if I had young children I probably would, too. :)
Great video Jen! Did the kids have fun on Halloween? Did you have a lot of kids come to your house? Have you started planning ahead for Christmas gifts? I started my shopping at QVC on Friday.
Try sautéd sausage with fried potatoes. Yum! Fry the potatoes as usual, when almost done add your smoked sausage and finish cooking. Make a lot because everyone will love it.
I am a single person but I love, love any video that you post!! Esp. the cooking/meal prep ones (and ones showing family and Murphy of course) I notice that you use green onions in your cooking, I omit these..not a fan lol. Thanks for all that you share with us!!
For some reason your tiny head of cauliflower reminded me...in case you haven’t tried it, cauliflower is great in place of broccoli in a broccoli salad type of preparation. The salad is also good with mixed cauliflower and broccoli. =) Re goat cheese/chèvre: if you blend goat cheese about half and half with softened cream cheese or butter, with or without adding herbs/spices, it makes an oh so tasty spreadable combination.
I've been eating more cottage cheese thanks to you and this week I made the cottage cheese fruit salad with orange jello mix and cool whip and pineapples and mandarin oranges--- delicious!
I'm the same way about cooking in a dirty kitchen (dishes piling up) probably because I am not a fan of doing dishes so if I get them done as I go along I don't get so overwhelmed
Egg roll in a bowl ! Reminds me of Shelly’s Home Life . She made hers with ground turkey , super delicious ! Also so sad her channel is no longer !! Great video , thanks for sharing 😊
Very nice I am going to try the Moroccan salad your deviled eggs look great too sometime you should try putting some horseradish in your yolk mixture it gives it a little boost and I put a little horseradish in my potato salad as well be blessed
Hey Jen, Might sound crazy but it’s delicious. In My deviled eggs I put a splash of Westershire sauce and sweet pickle relish, miracle whip. They are delicious. I have to take them anytime it’s a potluck and I’ve never had to bring one home. Everyone loves them. When I meal prep eggs I peel them because if I didn’t my husband wouldn’t take the time to . Lol
Add sesame seeds to the Eggroll in-a-bowl! You prob made it back in the keto days. It’s one of the recipes I still make nowadays trying to be low-carb.
My niece started calling them “doubled eggs” because they are cut in half and you get twice as many...no religious connotation. She’s 24 now and that’s what we call them.
Love the meal / veggie prep Jen! I gotta get more vinegar too! I am definitelyfixing the breakfast hash you made. Looks yummy! I would love to see a thanksgiving prep in the coming weeks! 😉😉 Im fixing a pork loin with potatoes and veggies so far. Would love to see what you do and maybe planning! 💖💖
Ha...I just heard someone say Angel eggs for Deviled eggs! Never heard of that before. Deviled eggs are the best! I actually use Hot Dog relish (I get it at my HyVee) and that works well for us! Thanks for sharing and have an awesome day!
Barb Stormo I wonder why they call them deviled eggs to begin with. Like I understand why the call chocolate cake devil cake cause like it’s so good it’s evil or whatever, but lol, why eggs? 😂
Boiled eggs will languish untouched in the fridge unless I peel them, but if I peel them, then they go fast. On the subject of husbands looking for protein in dinner--I often use vegetarian recipes but add just enough chicken or sausage so that it appeals to by husband. And on the subject of deviled eggs--I add a drift of curry powder.
My granny is deeply religious and also refers to them as angel eggs. I even got in trouble once when I was a kid for saying something “scared me to death”. She said I should say it “scared me to life”...
Every time you say arugala, I think of your video, "Nothing else will do! I want some damn arugala!" Baaahahaha you're the best!♀💪💕 PS- My guy will not eat dinner without a protien. Even chicken is iffy.🙄these freakin men! Ha! PS- I had some AE milk recently. The best!
Thanks for the video! Love all your videos! Your skillet you use what kind is it? I’m in the market for one with the handles like yours and not the “arm” handle! I’ve copied a few of your recipes! Please keep them coming!!!
Jen, I’m a fairly new subscriber catching up on some of your videos. I appreciate your dedication to your subscribers and your ability to laugh! I want to say that I am so sorry a “religion” tried to do such damage! I think it sounds very opposite to the teachings of the love of Jesus. Fear mongering is not based on faith! Keep doing you! I love watching your kiddos and Your dog and love your secret Momma eye-rolling, cracks me up everytime! A big Nebraska hello to you neighbor!
eek I don't think I would trust that cottage cheese to still be good if it expired 10/16 (but i'm extra cautious with expiration dates)..Love these dinner/meal ideas!!!!! great meal prep video!
laughed out loud twice during this one, about the eggs and about the husband who thinks its not a meal without a protien lol. On the cult issue, yep Iv actually got a family member who decided to join one of those despite not being raised religious. Some people have a strong need to be told life has rules and that if they just follow these rules everything will go well. And of course a we know life doesnt work that way, but if it gives someone a sense of comfort without doing harm to others, then Im okay with it. edit, ps... I make egg salad the same way I make deviled egg filling, and now I know what Im making for my lunch today so thanks lol. :D
So I thought AE was just Iowa, so I had to look it up.....😂 Good ol' HyVee let's it seep out of state. Nothing beats AE. You don't know unless you know, I do get thrown when you buy other dairy products tho, must admit. 😂😂
I'm very interested in trying intermittent fasting. Is your husband following a particular plan? Glad to hear it's been successful for him. Love your meal prep videos. Thanks for sharing.
@@Jen-Chapin My husband has had a good deal of luck eating only from 6am to 2 pm. Skips dinner altogether after eating his main meal at noon. So far so good and i like getting the cooking done by mid day.
I understand the church issue.. I went to a Christian Boarding School in High School, it was very cult like (although we had deviled eggs).. It was considered nondenominational but it was very restrictive and extreme..
I dont mind you repeating recipes. If people dont like it they dont have to watch. Lol. If it doesn't have protein, my husband and family wont eat it. Lol
Jen, I like that you chat with us while you prep meals. I’ve commented before about how I was raised in the JW religion. It sounds like we were raised very similarly. They’re both cults. Leah Remini did a two hour special on JW’S. Such a horrid way to grow up. You and I are all the stronger though, no doubt. Love your vlogs. Keep them coming.

Jen Chapin love it 😊
I like all your meal preps! It was great!
Love it!
Love your meal preps however you do them. Whichever is less time consuming for you is great.
Love it!
I scored big today went to Goodwill and found a brand new Oxo salad spinner in the box for $4.88.

Devilled eggs/Angel eggs looked soooo good 🤤🤤🤤
Hi Jen I miss a day in my day videos and you showing your work outfits I need inspiration ☺️
Yesssss....I was so excited to see a meal prep from you. Your meal preps are what got me into watching meal preps and still by far the best. 😁
Thank you!!

Jen you knocked it out of the park again,great video x 👏👏👏
Great video Jen! Did the kids have fun on Halloween? Did you have a lot of kids come to your house? Have you started planning ahead for Christmas gifts? I started my shopping at QVC on Friday.
Another great way to preserve celery is to wrap it in aluminum foil in the refrigerator. It stays in great condition for a long time.

Good looking recipes!
Great video. Focusing meal prep and not wasting food. You could have called it zero waste meal prep.
I love the more chatty video! I love hearing your thought process and stories l! Great Video!
Thanks for the Carmel Dip, I’ll never buy it again, so easy to make!😇💗
Loved your chatty meal prep!!! Be well!
I've been eating more cottage cheese thanks to you and this week I made the cottage cheese fruit salad with orange jello mix and cool whip and pineapples and mandarin oranges--- delicious!

Loved the Video! You make your deviled eggs like I do !!!
I love to see how people make (Angel) deviled eggs my mom made them with deviled ham and mayo. Great video more of these please!
Love watching your videos - all of your meals are awesome! We grew up calling them "Angel Eggs" for the exact same reason LOL!
Loving all the uploads!
Egg roll in a bowl ! Reminds me of Shelly’s Home Life . She made hers with ground turkey , super delicious ! Also so sad her channel is no longer !! Great video , thanks for sharing 😊
I love cottage cheese with pineapple
I LOVE this instead of the talk-over. It’s in the moment and saves time for you! Btw, your nails looks terrific without the gels! So healthy! 💕
Thank you!
Love this video... great ideas!
I have so much produce I need to chop this was great motivation!
We have a gather up your fragments day at our house every week...helps not to waste food.

I always put sweet pickle relish in my deviled eggs.
Would lemon juice be an okay substitute for washing fruit and veggies instead of vinegar?
Yes ma’am :)
I loved it and if I were there I would’ve licked that bowl clean of the left over egg yolk mixture 😂😂 good job everything looked so good!
love egg rolls, your way is cool without wrap, your meal looks yummy.
I made the apple dip but added about a tbs of maple syrup and put it on my kiddos waffles.
Jen the small white container you used with the cucumber salad what was it it and where is your juicer from
My niece started calling them “doubled eggs” because they are cut in half and you get twice as many...no religious connotation. She’s 24 now and that’s what we call them.
I’ve never heard of Zatar but I was reading about it and it has some great health benefits it looks lIke 🙂
rebecca cerrillo I looove Zatar! Haven’t had it in ages.
I have to peel the hard boiled eggs, otherwise they wouldn’t get eaten! Lol with the angel eggs!
Love your videos. Just curious . . . Is there any vinegar taste on the raw veggies or fruit when you wash them that way?
Love the meal / veggie prep Jen! I gotta get more vinegar too!
I am definitelyfixing the breakfast hash you made. Looks yummy!

We had to call them stuffed eggs lol my step mom would always says “the devil doesn’t live in this house those are stuffed eggs” i understand
Lmao!
@@Jen-Chapin I had friends who called them stuffed too! Also, we weren’t allowed to listen to secular music or dance. Dancing was a devils activity!

Jen what did you say about the vegetti bowl?
I’m from Australia, I’ve only ever had the eggs made with curry powder and we imaginatively call them ‘curried eggs’ 😆
I'm from Oz, we grew up with devilled eggs at Christmas parties with the cheese, cabanosi & jatz, I always find them a very "white" food.
eek I don't think I would trust that cottage cheese to still be good if it expired 10/16 (but i'm extra cautious with expiration dates)..Love these dinner/meal ideas!!!!! great meal prep video!
I filmed this before 10/16 :)
@@Jen-Chapin that makes me feel better LOL
Before the plastic police come for you, those dressing cups can be re-used
